[Pigs are flying...] I kinda think the Quade situation is not something to use as a prescriptive or proscriptive model. That was one incident. One, in 40 years. I'm kinda in the mood to trust that the guy who's been recruiting for 40 years will know what to tell a kid regarding his expected role. Doesn't mean it'll always work out, and i've cursed many a year where we had a starter's name written in Sharpie on the lineup card, seemingly because of recruiting promises. But we should acknowledge that, to balance the Quade thing, JB probably 'promised' Andrew White 39 minutes a game, and that kinda worked out for us, both in getting him, and the on-court results.

We're at the stage where we think we're an elite program, but we're recruiting against the sisters of the poor. We need more big time players, and this kid would be one of them. If JB needs to promise him a starting #3 role, i'm all for it.

Looked good in the 3-pt contest. Didn't win, but, acquitted himself quite nicely.
